Xu Pei changed his shoes and went in, saw Zhi Yan cooking and froze for a moment.

Ying Hu asks, "Is there a change in the chef?"

"Today Zhi Yan is at the helm." Qingning Lin says with a smile.

Ying Hu went over to take a look, and Qingning Lin suddenly asked, "Why is your face a little swollen?"

Ying Hu said, "I drank too much yesterday and didn't get enough sleep today, my pretty boy image is going to be ruined!"

"It's a little haggard." Yihua Duan said.

Ying Hu is actually in a rather depressed mood, he only knew yesterday that he was completely out of the game, a moment how can be so quickly adjusted to the mindset, he is just trying to be strong, but also do not want to show too lost to Xingchen Di difficult to do, so from the moment he opened the car door is in the strong high.

The good thing is that today is a special day, everyone is there, the attention and focus is not on him.

Xu Pei, drenched, took off his hat and said, "I'll go change."

Xu Pei took her suitcase and went to change her clothes, Xingchen Di thought that Xu Pei didn't know that they might have to re-share the rooms later, so she followed her in.

When they entered, they saw Xu Pei standing in the small living room, surveying the room where they both used to live.

Xingchen Di said, "Later we may have to re-share the room, you just change your clothes, the bedroom does not need to be moved."

"Do you still want to change?" Xu Pei asked.

"It's possible to change." Xingchen Di said.

Xingchen Di did not stay in the room for long, and after closing the door, he came out of the room and saw Bing Guo enter.

"Have you already cooked?" Bing Guo asks, "Are you having a dinner party?"

"Does the director want to eat with us?" Qingning Lin asked.

Bing Guo said, "I can't eat, we have two more appointments for you today."

Zhi Yan immediately put down the chopsticks in his hand at the words, his expression obviously a bit stunned.

Bing Guo said, "Everyone is here, right? Where is Xu Pei?"

"Here it is."

He turned his head and saw Xu Pei coming out from inside with a sweater on.

Bing Guo said, "Then I'll talk about our arrangement today. Here's the thing, because our recording time is relatively short, and there's a concentration of people we like, there are still guests who haven't been able to have a formal date with their favorite person until today."

Qingning Lin looked at Yihua Duan and Nuo Wen next to him and smiled and patted Nuo Wen's shoulder.

Nuo Wen's face is all red.

"So we'd like to give these guests one last chance to date today. We will use your last heartfelt text messages as the criteria for determining this, so if anyone's heartfelt date is different from the previous one, they can bring it up now." Bing Guo said and looked around, "Everyone's heartthrob hasn't changed, right?"

As soon as he said that, he saw Qingning Lin raise his hand awkwardly.

Ying Hu just laughed out loud, "Who did you send it to?"

" Xu Pei ah." Qingning Lin said very frankly.

"So if you were to send a heartfelt text message right now, who would you send it to?" Bing Guo asked.

"Perhaps Nuo Wen," Qingning Lin said, "We just recently went on a trip together."

This is a polite post-date heartwarming text message.

Nuo Wen just smiled.

"The director can leave me alone. Just give the last almost to someone else." Qingning Lin says with a smile.

"You just don't regret it," Bing Guo says. Bing Guo said, "So far, the only people who haven't had a formal date with someone they like are Yihua Duan and Nuo Wen. You two have one lunch and one dinner, so let's talk about splitting it up."

"But Yan has cooked a lot today." Nuo Wen said.

"Then let's all split it up for the afternoon." Yihua Duan said, "We'll all eat together at noon."

Bing Guo said, "You guys watch."

"Then we'll eat together at noon. One meal is one less." Cheng Huo said.

"So if you haven't recorded a single pick, do it before you have lunch." Bing Guo said.

So far only Xu Pei, Yihua Duan and Zhi Yan have recorded their singles, while the remaining five have not yet recorded.

Everyone went to record a single pick, while Xu Pei and Yihua Duan stayed behind to give Zhi Yan a hand.

Yihua Duan asked Xu Pei, "Where did you and Ying Hu go?"

Xu Pei said, "We went to the town of Shuanma."

Yihua Duan froze for a moment: "Did Huo and the others also go to Shuanma Town?"

Xu Pei nods.

Zhi Yan glanced at Xu Pei when he heard that.

"Have you seen it?" Yihua Duan asked again.

"We had dinner together twice." Xu Pei said.

Yihua Duan then laughed and said half-jokingly and half-genuinely, "You are really lucky."

Or this is the so-called fate it, like any two people in this world love each other, are in millions of years and millions of people, with a variety of opportunities happen to meet and love each other, and finally come together.

Yihua Duan stole a glance at Zhi Yan, who was wearing an apron and rolling up her cuffs, quietly using chopsticks to turn over the fish in the pan, probably not skilled enough, as soon as the fish turned over, it rotted, exposing the white flesh.

"It seems like you have to heat up the water for the fish soup to come out white in the stew." Xu Pei suddenly said.

Zhi Yan, who was about to receive cold water, looked back and said, "I forgot."

Yihua Duan said to Xu Pei, "Now you can cook, too."

"I've seen Star make fish soup that way." Xu Pei said.

Yihua Duan looked at Xu Pei and thought, "Xu Pei is still very low-key, he doesn't have any proud and provocative expression, but he has changed so much from when he first came to the red and blue hut, the change is visible to the naked eye like the glow of a victor, which says it all.

Most of them haven't changed, only Xu Pei has changed the most, it's love that has changed him and brought color and light to him.

Xu Pei is the change toward Xingchen Di.

In that moment, he really envied Xu Pei, and was even a little jealous of him.

It would have been better if he had changed earlier. He spent too long avoiding, dwelling on, and hesitating.

He was not wronged at all when he lost to Xu Pei.

Because it is the last single pick, the program team recorded a special detail, until they all recorded a single pick back, all meals are on the table.

Probably also because of the last single pick, the program team asked questions that made everyone's emotions a little sad.

"Let's have some wine." Cheng Huo takes a bottle of wine out of his suitcase.

"Huo even brought wine with him, ah." Ying Hu said.

Cheng Huo said, "I still have a bottle of white, so I'll save it for after the show."

"Can we eat together again tomorrow?" Ying Hu asked.

"I'm sure we'll have a dinner with the crew after the taping tomorrow." Qingning Lin said.

"It seems like every time we get together lately we say it might be our last get-together, and we end up having one meal after another." Nuo Wen laughs.

"This show is just full of surprises and surprises." Cheng Huo said.

He poured everyone's glasses, and then everyone stood up.

"Let's drink to our last and probably last two dinners, and to Zhi Yan's first time at the helm!" Cheng Huo says.

Everyone laughed, glasses clinked together, the situation was the same as when they first came to the Red and Blue Lodge.

As it turns out, cooking is not a quick fix, and Zhi Yan's dishes look as exquisite as he is as a person, but taste very average. But the first time he was in charge of a dish like this, everyone gave him high praise and ate it up.

The meal was finished, and the wine was drunk without a drop left.

When it came to the last moment, everyone was calmer than before. After finishing the meal, everyone sat on the seats and chatted. Around three o'clock, Yihua Duan stood up and looked at Xingchen Di: "Xingchen."

Xingchen Di then stood up.

Everyone sat on the chairs and watched Xingchen Di and Yihua Duan go out together.

It was still raining outside, Ying Hu glanced at Xu Pei and saw that Xu Pei was looking at Xingchen Di's back.

The six of them sat there for a while longer and then began to clear the table.

"I forgot to tell you about the room sharing." Ying Hu said. Ying Hu said, "I haven't even slept enough and I want to catch up on my sleep."

"As I see it, it's just going to be the same way we lived before." Cheng Huo said.

Zhi Yan nodded and said, "I'm fine with that."

Qingning Lin said, "I can do it, too."

After everyone cleaned up the kitchen, they went to their own rooms to clean up. It was only about ten minutes when Xu Pei heard a movement in the small living room.

He put down the pillowcase and came out of the room, only to see Xingchen Di return.

"Back so soon."

Xingchen Di said, "We went for a walk to the beach and came back."

"Is it cold?"

Xingchen Di laughs: "A little, so we walked a little and came back, Tuan was freezing and sneezing all the time, the wind was too strong at the beach."

Xu Pei smiled and said, "We still live here, the same way we split it up."

"I just heard from Huo."

While there is time, Xingchen Di intends to clean up his room. Xu Pei walked to his door and whispered, "I'm going to invite Huo to dinner tonight."

Xingchen Di froze for a moment and nodded her head.

Xu Pei leaned against the door frame and watched him.

At that moment, there was a knock at the door. Xu Pei glanced back outside and saw Nuo Wen pushing in the door.

"Brother Pei." Nuo Wen was still a little nervous.

"Looking for the stars?" Xu Pei asked.

Nuo Wen nodded his head.

Xingchen Di looked up and said, "Wait for me, I'll be ready soon."

"Then I'll wait for you in the living room! You don't have to rush ......" Nuo Wen went out with a red face.

Xu Pei said, "You can stay out with Nuo Wen for a while longer and come back later."

Xingchen Di turned his head toward Xu Pei and glanced at him.

"There may not be such opportunities in the future." Xu Pei said.

"What kind of opportunity?"

"The opportunity to date other men in a positive way." Xu Pei said.

"Yo~" a sound of dog food was heard from the program team next door.

It's really rare to have them capture this young couple flirting!

God, it's sweet!

Xingchen Di sure enough also laughed, and his head did not return, only stretched out his right hand and pointed to the camera behind him.

"Yo~" another sound of dog food was heard from the program team next door.

Next, Xingchen Di squatted on the floor to organize his suitcase, while Xu Pei leaned against the doorway, and neither of them spoke.

Tomorrow he won't be single.

Xu Pei thought.

It is actually exciting, even if that moment did not come before, more or less apprehensive. Even though the sadness of parting, and his complex feelings for other love interests are mixed together, but more than anything else, it's still an unbridled desire for a future love life.

They met and fell in love on the Love Variety. The camera may seem to hinder their closeness, but it actually promotes it in a way. When the recording is over and there are no more cameras, maybe Xingchen Di will become more youthful and shy instead.

They will have a more real, intimate and exciting relationship.

That was the start of a real relationship, an exciting one for just the two of them.

Xingchen Di felt Xu Pei's longing for the show to end. Behind that longing is a desire for all that a real relationship entails. Dating, kissing, intimacy, bonding, heart to heart.

Xingchen Di pursed his lips for a moment, and suddenly thought a little abashedly, if only he could record him for another month.

Without the staff, without the camera, and without the other guests, the real love life, Xu Pei should be what kind of ah ah.

Thinking of Xu Pei, who was leaning against the doorframe, looking sullenly at his back and not speaking, Xingchen Di quietly switched directions, from back to face. He looked up towards Xu Pei, whose eyes were focused and bright, all with the light of love.

"I've told you, these two are sweeter when they're not talking than when they are!" Li Xiao said.

"What do you think they're both thinking at the moment?"

"Definitely thinking, stay up one more day, one last day."

"God, don't say that,, I'm excited."

"Xingchen Di's thoughts are hard to say, but Xu Pei must be eager to get it over with, right? Otherwise, who can stand to see the person they like going out for a walk with this one today and that one tomorrow?"

"The two must be sweeter in private, look at them now this pull, this tension, not to mention the other, the end of the first day must be at least KISS, right?"

"Director, should we let them have their first on-screen kiss if the confession is successful?"

"Like a marriage proposal, it's not too much to ask for a kiss if you succeed! On behalf of the hearts of cp fans!"

"Finally the grand finale with the two of them kissing as a freeze frame, it is sure to blow!"

"Then our season will really be complete!"

"I can only say that the end of the show, to the real love, any pair in this world even the most ordinary couple, really love that moment, how sweet, is the outsiders can not imagine, only the two of them know themselves." Bing Guo said.

The show is coming to an end, but for Rising Star, it is only the beginning.

Xingchen Di closed the suitcase and stood up.

"Being a doormat, huh?" He said to Xu Pei.

Xu Pei suddenly let out a laugh.

As Xingchen Di walks past him, Xu Pei softly asks:

"Nervous? I find that when you're nervous you're mean."

The two came next to each other inside the door frame.

"It's too late to be nervous." Xu Pei said.
